The best experience ever
Found out about this trip over a year ago and finally got chance to do it. Was even better than expected and had the absolute best day! Alex our guide was great, such a nice guy and made the day so fun! Even took loads of pictures for us. We managed to walk through seracs and even crawled though an ice tunnel. Would recommend this to anyone, don't know what trip could beat it.

Incredible Unique Experience
What an awesome activity! We thoroughly enjoyed our glacier hike and helicopter ride on a beautiful sunny day. Our guide, Cale, was excellent. He was super friendly, a great instructor and communicator. Not only did we feel very safe with him, but he also had a lot of knowledge about the glacier and answered any questions we had. The route we took was awesome, going through a stunning blue crevasse, past small icy waterfalls and over crunchy, slushy ice. Absolutely loved it, from the gearing up to the final walk back to base through the forest.

Absolutely epic!
Enjoyed my time up at the glacier enormously, such a unique experience and the helicopter ride there and back is stunning! Big shout out to the crew that made it all happen, they come up to the ice every morning, assess conditions, carve new steps for us hikers and move the carabeena poles. Without a doubt worth the money and we are so glad we did this trip!!
